Computer geek, cleans up fairly nicely. Love photography of just about anything, as long as it's well-done. Married & getting too old for this Flickr-addiction foolishness... Okay, okay, obviously NOT too old after all. Ahem. Well over 40. Did I say 40? Make that 60. When did THAT happen?! Sigh.

I do enjoy interesting photos of all kinds - taking them, as well as viewing other's work. I want to say THANK YOU to all the people who post both snapshots and the pics that make my jaw hit the floor in awe (and envy. How do you make those look so good?!). Seriously. How do you do it?

I am trying to learn "how to" from all of you with my brand-spanking-new camera! This one is a D$LR, so it had better last a LOT longer than my previous P&S models! LOL Now I just have to figure out what to post...

WARNING I didn't want to have to do this, but sheesh people. This is getting annoying. How hard is it type ONE sentence? Multiple Favourites with no comments, nothing at all in your photostream, nothing even in your About... I'm tired of one-sided participation and gonna start blocking people. Come on, your phone has a freaking camera in it. Use that if nothing else! If you're nervous and can't figure out how to remove identifying information, just ask.

WARNING 1 My pictures are not to be used for any purpose other than personal enjoyment. No saving, sharing, publishing, researching, etc.

WARNING 2 Note that many of my favorites, contacts, follows and groups are NSFW and run from mildly racy to... well, highly kinky. If those types of things offend you, I do sympathize - but PLEASE don't click further - what you see is on you after this! Note that I don't engage in everything I may follow, some of it, I just find interesting.

Our Pictures

Note these are ALL our pictures; in the possible but rare case otherwise, they will be clearly noted. This includes some AI-generated or a few "enhanced" pictures.

Public photos will always be G rated thanks to the new rules.

Friends pictures are risque to explicit or otherwise not for general public consumption. This is our most common kind of posting. Most of them are pretty "amateur" and taken with a phone lately. Some poses, some action shots. Hopefully some more artistic-level pictures will appear at some point. There will be no unblurred faces. Privacy and discretion are paramount.

Family May have face pics but sorry, only for actual family or nearly so. We cannot share any face pictures due to our work and family being in the dark about these pictures. Stealing of pictures does occur, so you never know where they could end up or who will find them,

On the other hand, if you think you ARE an actual, real-life friend or family, please let me know! That could prove... very interesting! There are a few real-life F & F I'd actually like to trade a few pics with. At the least! *wink*

BTW all metadata has been stripped from personal pictures to enforce privacy, not because they are stolen. Hopefully. If you notice any privacy related metadata, please let me know immediately so it can be fixed.

Interaction Guidance:

Just so you know what to expect from us, here's a list of things that might happen interacting with this account.

You

1. Comments on our pictures are very welcome and often get a response from him every few comments. It will also cause your account to be investigated, in the hopes that you have similar to share!

2. Picture notes are not welcome. Ugg. Spoil the view and typically are juvenile on top of that.

3. Of course, if you favourite, please do leave a comment. Only fair to give feedback if you like it that much. And please, people! Favs are only visible to others if they ALREADY have access, they don't expose your private pictures! The "don't fave or we'll block you" attitude is just silly.

4. Group invites of pictures - not usually going to be accepted unless it feels relatively safe and very on-point for the group. They're F/F because we don't want random people to access them without at least an attempt of control. Groups throw that out the window and are more likely to be stolen and/or made public. Although that decision is starting to change...

5. Cross-dressing, bi-male or trans activity is not an interest. You're welcome to it but unlikely to even follow back unless you've got some really interesting pics.

6. If you mostly have pictures of him, his junk. kids or band pictures... not likely to follow either. Other interesting/artistic pictures might get a follow though!

7. If you add us as Friend or Family so we can see more intimate pictures, we may want to reciprocate if your restricted pictures are mostly of the fairer sex. If it's just a ton of your 'guy junk' - or obviously web-sourced pictures - then sorry, not interested. Your own amateur or professional level pictures of the ladies or couples (or more) are of interest, from mild to wild.

Us

1. If I Follow you - it means I liked your message post, your photo work, or even that you yourself seem interesting, so I don't want to make it impossible to find you again on this massive site and will get notified of your new pics.

(a) I do hope you check out our public stream if I follow you initially, to see if you're interested in what's there and maybe what is offered as F/F.

(b) If I left an appreciative comment on some of your pictures then maybe you have F/F pictures too... If they are in our mutual interest zone, feel free to F/F us and drop a note - we'll check out your stream ASAP!

2. If our first contact seems to be adding you as F/F (rarely happens!) it probably means you hide some/all your risque pictures as well, but posted a F/F comment, picture or discussion post in a group somewhere... and I really hope you reciprocate because I liked your post! I almost certainly likely left an appreciative comment on a few of the picture(s) in question or a reply in a discussion.

3. Chat me!If I was interested enough to follow you, I would also love to chat! Drop me a message any time, I always respond one way or another ASAP.

4. While pictures sometimes have longer descriptions or the stories behind them, I also post stories on a number of group forums. Sometimes starting a post, sometimes replying to a story or question. I wish Flickr had some way to easily and reliably find all your posts. That Search tool is so flaky!

5. It is almost always him posting. She occasionally checks out the feed, but so far shows no interest in reading or responding to comments. Or so she says LOL

Thanks again to all for posting of your works. It's all good! Post on!
